Soon enough, dinner started immediately. Just like last night, everyone gathered in the east chamber courtyard to have dinner with Han Qiumiao.
Han Qiumiao chose to have a meal with everyone. The main purpose was to win people's hearts and let the warriors who followed her into dangerous situations understand her appreciation for them.
As a relative of the emperor, it is undoubtedly the highest honor for Han Qiumiao to dine at the same table with everyone. For Uncle He Taishi and the martial arts warriors, it is undoubtedly the highest honor. In this way, Han Qiumiao is grateful to Uncle He Taishi and the martial arts warriors for his willingness.
Take the risk and accompany him deep into the enemy camp.
You must know that this trip is full of misfortunes. Uncle He Taishi and others accompany Han Qiumiao, which is really commendable and loyal.
Of course, the reason why everyone risked their lives for Han Qiumiao and protected Her Royal Highness the Princess was largely because they were touched by Han Qiumiao's standing up to protect the people in the north.
She is a good princess who is benevolent, righteous, courteous and wise, and a righteous warrior with upright views, so she is naturally willing to serve her.
Hou Baihu, who had a wrong outlook on life, was pretending to be a coward at this time. He followed Uncle He Taishi to the dining table. He looked greedy and leaned over to smell the aroma of the delicacies, revealing a look of intoxication and emotion:
"Although we are trapped in the enemy's camp
, but their hospitality was pretty good, with all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, fish and meat, it was really luxurious and flashy. If I hadn’t witnessed with my own eyes how miserable the people in the northern towns were, and saw this luxurious dinner, I would have thought that there would be another bumper harvest in the Northern Territory this year.”
"Hmph, the Northern Territory Shepherd is just a little thief who is obsessed with money and greed for power." Uncle He Taishi angrily scolded him. The stubborn old man is quite courageous, unlike some wallflowers who will fall to the wind when the situation is not right.
"Although the dishes on this table are very luxurious, they are all the result of the hard work of the people in the north. Since Qingtian Xiong did not tamper with them, we must not waste the food. Knights, there is no need to worry about me, just enjoy your meal.
." Han Qiumiao motioned for everyone to eat.
"Thank you, Your Highness, Princess." The warriors present clasped their fists in return and then moved their chopsticks in an orderly manner.
Although Han Qiumiao told everyone not to be polite and to let go of their tempers and follow the rules of the Jianghu people, drink wine and eat meat boldly. However, Uncle He and the seniors were still very cautious and did not dare to be presumptuous in front of Her Royal Highness.
On the contrary, it was Sister Xiaoqing who casually held a bowl of wine and drank it happily.
Hou Baihu looked around at the people eating and was not in a hurry to take action because he knew very well that the martial arts of everyone present were superior to his, and if he was not careful at all, he would be exposed.
As Qingtian Xiong said, it doesn't matter if the drug is not successful today. As long as his identity is not exposed, Han Qiumiao can still continue to devise tricks in the future.
Now Hou Baihu needs to observe patiently in order to find the right time to put the prepared medicine in the dish that Han Qiumiao likes.
Soon, Hou Baihu noticed that Han Qiumiao seemed to like the dish of stir-fried shredded pork with cabbage on the table...
Hou Baihu spotted this dish for two reasons. One is that Han Qiumiao likes it, and the other is that Isabel also likes it.
Qingtian Xiong has said that his only target is Han Qiumiao. If the other Jianghu women are accidentally poisoned, then let him handle it as Hou Baihu does.
Isabel is undoubtedly the most attractive woman here, so Hou Baihu naturally covets her and hopes to bring harm to her as well.
Ever since, Hou Baihu stood up rashly and lifted the table
With a bottle of wine, Wan Dingtian walked towards Biyuan Villa. He seemed to respect the elders in the world and respectfully toasted Wan Dingtian with a glass of wine.
However, when Hou Baihu reached out to hand over the wine, he secretly sprinkled the drug powder into the dishes without anyone noticing...
According to Qingtian Xiong, this medicine has strong medicinal properties and melts when it comes into contact with water. Just a little splash in food and wine can exert a powerful effect.
However, something unexpected happened. The medicinal powder was sprinkled on the vegetable juice of the cabbage and shredded pork, but it did not dissolve. This scared Hou Baihu into a cold sweat.
Fortunately among the misfortunes, due to the small amount of medicinal powder, it was difficult to detect without looking carefully, and none of the warriors present noticed anything fishy.
At this time, Hou Baihu couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was lucky that no one had noticed it, otherwise it would have been very bad...
Did Hou Baihu's little move really not attract anyone's attention? The answer must be... no! At least three people present noticed that he secretly sprinkled something into the dishes while toasting Wan Dingtian.
The first person who noticed that Hou Baihu sprinkled some white powder on the cabbage and fried shredded pork was Wei Suyao, who had just learned about Qingtian Xiong's conspiracy from Zhou Xingyun and had been wary of Hou Baihu.
The second person who noticed Hou Baihu's movements was the little idiot girl next to Han Qiumiao and Han Shuang's twin sisters.
However, Wei Suyao had told Han Qiumiao a moment ago that Qingtian Xiong tried to make Hou Baihu poison her food and force her to marry using shameless means.
So now little Dainiu just turns a blind eye, pretends not to see it, and lets Hou Baihu do whatever he wants. Anyway, Wei Suyao said what he said, Zhou Xingyun asked everyone to leave Hou Baihu alone, he and Rao Yue will work together
Take responsibility and stop Hou Baihu’s actions...
As for the third person who discovered something unusual, it was Isabel.
Isabel did not expose Hou Baihu in public because she not only noticed that Hou Baihu was doing something secretly, she also found that Wei Suyao saw Hou Baihu's actions, but pretended not to see it and still enjoyed the dinner indifferently.
.
Isabel guessed that there was another mystery here, so she simply waited and watched to see what tricks they were up to...
Hou Baihu thought that he had drugged the dishes and was not discovered. He couldn't help but secretly chuckle, looking forward to Han Qiumi and Isabel caring for the stir-fried shredded pork with cabbage again.
It was too late, but it was too late. Han Qiumiao lived up to Hou Baihu's expectations. In the blink of an eye, he stretched out his hand, ready to pick up cabbage and stir-fry shredded pork.
Unfortunately, Hou Baihu was looking forward to seeing Han Qiumiao's fried shredded pork with cabbage, and when his plan was about to succeed... a skillful hand suddenly stretched out from the side and took away a large pile of fried shredded pork with cabbage.
"Dear, try this..." Sister Rao Yue suddenly picked up a whole plate of stir-fried shredded pork with cabbage, and as if the autumn wind was blowing away fallen leaves, she piled the stir-fried shredded pork with cabbage onto Zhou Xingyun's rice bowl.
"Xiaoyue...this...is a bit much." Wan Duzi! Zhou Xingyun couldn't laugh or cry, and he suddenly had an enlightenment.
It turns out that Miss Rao Yue is full of pranks today, her smile is so sweet, her mood is so happy, and she is so excited to play tricks on the children, all because the target of her pranks is not directed at others, but at Zhou Xingyun.
"Although the dishes on this table are very luxurious, they are all the fruits of the hard work of the people in the north. My dear, don't waste it. Hehehe... open your mouth." Girl Rao Yue picked up the cabbage and fried shredded pork, and said cheerfully.
Delivered to Zhou Xingyun's mouth.
"..." Zhou Xingyun's only choice is... to eat the food fed by the beauty! He must eat it all! No matter whether it is poisonous or not, he will eat it until he dies!
When Wei Suyao saw Rao Yue playing tricks on Zhou Xingyun, he was shocked and a little at a loss.
Why was Wei Suyao at a loss? That's because she only heard from Zhou Xingyun that Hou Baihu wanted to harm Han Qiumiao and tried to put medicine in the dishes, but she didn't know that Rao Yue had already slipped the medicine in Hou Baihu's hands.
Now Wei Suyao saw that Hou Baihu put medicinal powder in the fried shredded pork with cabbage, but Rao Yue smiled and asked Zhou Xingyun to eat the 'poisonous' dishes. Isn't that...
Although the medicine Hou Baihu put in the dishes was not a fatal poison and would not harm Zhou Xingyun's body, but... Zhou Xingyun ate the whole dish, even though the medicine would only make people groan.
Alas, that would also make Zhou Xingyun miserable.
No! I'm afraid they will be the ones who suffer unspeakably when the time comes! Wait! Wei Suyao's mind raced and he immediately wanted to understand Rao Yue's intention.
If Rao Yue lets Zhou Xingyun eat the 'poisonous' cabbage and fried shredded pork, Zhou Xingyun will definitely become restless and unbearable, and then Rao Yue will take the opportunity to steal the fish!
"Ahem! Xingyun, if you can't finish it, share it with me." Wei Suyao walked up to Zhou Xingyun without any explanation, picked up her chopsticks and took away the fried shredded pork with cabbage in his bowl.
Wei Suyao was worried that if Zhou Xingyun ate a large pile of fried shredded pork with cabbage, the medicine would be too strong and cause Zhou Xingyun to be injured, so... Xiao Suyao stepped forward without hesitation to share the toxicity for Zhou Xingyun.
Anyway...even if you are poisoned, you and Zhou Xingyun can detoxify each other.
When Wei Suyao thought of this, a blush suddenly appeared on her fair cheeks. Looking at the 'poisonous' cabbage and shredded pork in front of her, she was so embarrassed that she could hardly open her mouth to eat.
"Eat. Why don't you eat? Waste of food will be punished by God." Rao Yue looked at Wei Suyao who was riding a tiger with interest. This was the result she wanted to see.
However, what made Wei Suyao hate and anger the most was that Zhou Xingyun, a heartless guy, actually said to her with a sly smile: "Suyao, feel free to eat, it will be fine."
Both Zhou Xingyun and Rao Yue knew that the white powder sprinkled on the fried shredded pork with cabbage was just ordinary wheat flour.
However, Wei Suyao, who didn't know the truth, saw Zhou Xingyun's wretched smiling face wishing she was poisoned. He was helpless and speechless. In the end, he could only take a deep breath silently, and with the mentality of a strong man with his arm broken, he opened his red lips lightly and ate the 'poisonous'
Stir-fried shredded pork with cabbage.
"It's amazing, it's amazing. Huh heh heh..." Sister Rao Yue smiled and clapped softly. Wei Suyao dared to eat the food even though she knew it was poisonous. She was just eager to mess around with Zhou Xingyun.
"Suyao is so awesome! I accept your kindness! Come on, come on, Xiaoyue, you can have a bite too." Zhou Xingyun couldn't help but find it very funny, and quickly picked up a piece of cabbage and fed it to Xiaoyue, adding fuel to the fire.
Teasing Wei Suyao.
"Wait! What are you..." Before Wei Suyao could stop her, Meimei Rao Yue cooperated and opened her small mouth to eat the food fed by Zhou Xingyun.
"The taste is very good. My dear, let them try it too." Rao Yue glanced at Mo Nianxi tepidly. Zhou Xingyun immediately understood after hearing this: "Nianxi, you can also try it."
"Okay, feed me." Mo Nianxi quickly sat over, like a hungry bird, with her mouth open waiting to be fed.
